Hankison E6-12 Element

The Hankison E6-12 Element is a high-performance compressed air filter replacement engineered for critical particulate filtration and oil aerosol removal. Designed specifically for use in Hankison HF6-12 series housings?including the HF6-12-3 and HF6-12-4 variants?this element utilizes a dual-stage filtration process to maintain system integrity. The first stage employs a multi-layered fiber medium to trap large solid particles, while the second stage focuses on fine coalescing filtration to reduce residual oil content to 1.0 ppm or less. With a 1 micron rating, the E6-12 effectively protects downstream equipment from abrasive contaminants, rust, and scale. Its robust construction ensures a low pressure drop, optimizing compressor energy efficiency and preventing filter collapse during high-demand cycles. For contractors maintaining industrial air dryers or air distribution systems, this element is an essential component for achieving ISO 8573-1 air quality standards in HVACR and pneumatic operations.

• High Filtration Efficiency: Provides 1.0 micron particulate removal and reduces residual oil aerosols to 1.0 ppm w/w.
• Internal Media Integrity: High-quality bonded fiber media maintains a low differential pressure, reducing energy costs associated with air flow resistance.
• System Compatibility: Precise fit for Hankison HF series filter housings, ensuring a leak-free seal and reliable replacement filter element performance.
• Protection: Extends the service life of sensitive downstream components, such as air tools, valves, and precision instrumentation.

What is the micron rating for the Hankison E6-12?
The E6-12 is rated for 1.0 micron filtration, making it suitable for pre-filtering air before it reaches ultra-high efficiency coalescers or adsorption dryers.

Which filter housings are compatible with this element?
This element is primarily designed for the Hankison HF6-12 filter assembly, common in industrial compressed air systems.

When should the E6-12 element be replaced?
Technicians should monitor the differential pressure; replacement is typically required when the pressure drop exceeds the manufacturer's recommended limit (often 5-10 psid) or during scheduled annual maintenance intervals to prevent contamination bypass.
